Biography
Judy Moncada was from a poor family in Colombia, and she married Gerardo Moncada, a Medellin Cartel member. She helped Gerardo in building a fortune, and they were devoted to each other, with Gerardo confiding in her and commissioning a portrait of her to hang in their mansion. In 1992, Gerardo expressed his dissatisfaction with Pablo Escobar's high "war taxes" on Moncada's operations and his insistence that Medellin remain at war with the Cali Cartel, and Judy accidentally brought up the subject in front of Pablo Escobar. She attempted to change the subject, but Escobar would keep this in mind when he had her husband murdered. Judy was assured that he was alive, but she discovered his death from news footage. Judy, her brother Jaime, and their friend Diego Murillo Bejarano decided to fight against Escobar, and the overconfident Jaime was murdered by Escobar at his drug lab. Judy was forced to seek the help of the Cali Cartel, meeting Helmer Herrera, Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela, and Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela at their mansion and agreeing to let Search Bloc dismantle Escobar's drug labs.
